The book will give a brief summary of
AD compared to NT 4.0
and NDS. Once the groundwork is established for AD, there
will be discussions about how to implement the different
components and objects within AD. After the AD is
established, there will be a discussion about how AD will
interact with the other network
services, such as
DNS,
DHCP, and WINS, as well as how to properly plan for the AD
infrastructure, including Group Policy Objects, Delegate
Control, administrative concepts, and installation
considerations. There will be tips on how to avoid the most
common traps of designing and implementing AD
infrastructures. The final chapter will give real world AD
design examples that have been implemented by some of the
largest and most well known companies in the industry.
